By Mercy Ben-kalio

All roads this Sallah break leads to TerraKulture arena, Victoria Island, Lagos to witness one of the best works of Literature veteran, Prof. Wole Soyinka- ‘Death and the King’s Horseman’ performed live on stage.

The play ‘Death and the King’s Horseman’ which is set in ancient Oyo town describes Nigeria during the Second World War, when Nigeria was still a British colony where after the King’s death, the king’s horseman commences the traditional ritual that will ensure the smooth transition of the dead king to the world beyond as the British colonial officer intervenes. As an effect, the harmonious co-existence between the living, the dead and the unborn is under severe threat, leading to a grave conflict.
